  "summary": "US President Donald Trump has announced a deal with Venezuela that he calls \"the biggest oil deal in world history\". The White House has provided few details beyond Trump's social media post.\n\nAccording to Venezuelan interim President Delcy Rodríguez, the agreement will run for 25 years and covers the development of 17 strategic oilfields. The target is to produce more than 1.5 million barrels of oil per day from these fields.\n\nVenezuela will provide the oil, industry, and workers, while the US will provide the money and technology. Rodríguez said the deal could help revive the Venezuelan economy and increase government revenue.",
